Who we are?

We are Virgilio and Matias. Two flying enthusiast friends who enjoy the flying environment and especially cross-country soaring. Our planes and gliders are the most precious machines to us. That’s why we like to thoroughly take care of them.

What we do?

We are specialists in aircraft, glider and ULMs covers manufacturing. We provide state-of-the-art cover solutions, with the most advanced textile technology, world-class quality standards at the most affordable price in the market.

Why Kairos?

In Greek mythology Kairos is the God of weather and the seasons. He is depicted as having a pair of wings on his back and a scale in his hands. Kairos is the key to be successful in unpredictable and unusual situations. Ancient Greek had two words for “Time”. While Chronos is quantitative, Kairos has a qualitative nature. Time, quality, weather, seasons, wings, unpredictable situations, success. All these features describe our covers very accurately.

Where we are?

Our HQ is in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Our marketing, research and development departments are located there. However, as our current world requires us to be more competitive and globalized every day, our manufacturing facilities are located in Asia, which allows us to reach top- quality products, make our covers at the highest international quality standards, offer the most affordable prices in the world, and optimize logistics between our factory and our final customers all across the American continent.

Reinforced All-Weather Covers

Reinforced All-Weather covers are the same as All-Weather but the inner layer has wider, stronger netting fabric protecting the surfaces better than the single cotton layer. Recommended for unpredictable, harsh environments.

Extra HAIL protection

Protection is provided by padding made up of multiple thick layers of special breathable mesh material attached with Velcro to the wings and elevator underneath the standard all weather covers. Although there is no expressed guarantee that this option will prevent all damage the impact from hail or incidental, light impacts can be considerably reduced.

DISCLAIMER: The use of All-weather covers with HAIL PROTECTION does not guarantee under no circumstances that your aircraft will not be damaged because of severe or extreme weather conditions. Even though they can considerably reduce the risk of damage to your aircraft, no set of covers can replace a safe and secure hangar. In the presence of unfavorable weather conditions, we strongly recommend taking the preventive measures needed.
